Constant Contact is one of the world’s best known brands for small business email marketing. Their product is easy to get started with and they provide a great range of tutorials and tips and hints to help make your email marketing more effective.

Features: Constant Contact is a really easy to use service, which will be especially useful if you are a novice to email marketing. One of my favourite things about Constant Contact is their great range of templates - they literally have hundreds to choose from. They have many different styles and designs for different industries and most of the colour schemes can be changed too. Editing and personalising these templates is really simple, so you can create an HTML email you will be proud of.

Constant Contact also has a survey module. Once again it is really easy to use. They even have a series of prepared survey questions to get you started. So if you want to send a survey regarding customer service, they have 13 questions that you can either keep or completely customise however you like. Online surveys with Constant Contact are not included with the email marketing subscription, but start at just $15 per month.

There are some basic reporting tools available for both email campaigns and surveys. The email reports can show you the email open rates from your campaigns.

Support: Excellent free customer support either by telephone, email or online chat. Customer support is based in the United States, so support is usually available until about midday Australian time . Their Learning Centre contains a lot of useful email marketing tutorials and guides.

Pricing: The starting price is just $15 per month, which allows unlimited emails to up to 500 subscribers. For an additional $15 per month their survey module is available for up to 250 subscribers. If you pre pay for 6 or 12 months then discounts of 10 - 15% are on offer.

Summary: Constant Contact is such a popular service for small businesses. It’s no wonder considering how easy the templates are to use and how easy it is to set up an email campaign. Click here to get started on your 60 Day Free Trial
